Tony Robinson Explores The Ancient Roman Empire In Britain

Roman Britain wasn't just about emperors and legions; it was a melting pot of ordinary people with extraordinary lives. This documentary uncovers the forgotten stories of the everyday individuals who built Roman Britain from the ground up. We follow an African soldier named Marcus, sent 3,000 miles to do guard duty on Hadrian's Wall; a Gallic slave girl, Fortunata, sold for a fortune in Londinium; a celebrity couple of Lucius the gladiator and Veracunda the actress; and a native craftsman, Boduanus, who navigated the new Roman world on his own terms. Through incredible archaeological finds like the Vindolanda writing tablets, bills of sale, and exquisite metalwork, we piece together the real lives behind the history. With insights from experts Dr. Simon Elliot, Caroline Nicolay, Dr. Matthew Nichols, and Dr. Richard Hobbes, we explore everything from Roman road-building and military life to the brutal entertainment of the arena and the exotic foods introduced to the British diet. This is the real story of the Roman Empire, told from the bottom up. From The History of Britain Series 2, Episode 1 Best History Documentaries is part of The Little Dot Studios Network.
